'Critic in the Cabernet' ep Reaction ***SPOILERS***
***** Spoilers *******
I'll borrow a trick from ![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
spacekid77 and post what I just wrote intempertemper77 's LJ:
I'm still a little shell-shocked from the ending, but the last two minutes were worth the rest of it.
My initial thoughts:
- The case was crap. But the two women with babies provided, well, <i>babies</i> for her to pick up and play with. Meh.
- The baby thing was very jolting, and made her seem even more out there in left field. Despite all the foreshadowing they have done, it still was a shock.
-Booth was not acting like Booth, but I'll attribute that to the brain tumor. Of course he would be involved, and I like to think that Stewie was his projection of that even though the tumor was screwing it up.
- Her reaction to his repeated hallucinations was awesome - from that moment on the ep was made of win. She basically made the emotional connection right there.
- Sweets rocked. His melt-down was priceless and perfect and made me love him a little bit for the first time. He was a terrified duckling there for a minute.
-Cam and Angela are a shipper's dream. I love Cam/Booth friendship moments.
-The prep scene onward: I can't say enough about DB, and the range of emotions all over his face. He so clearly loves her. And his insistence she 'take his stuff'. I expected it, but it still hit me hard. *tears up*
Gah... I could go on for hours. Next week can't come soon enough...
ADDENDUM:
In addition to above, most of all I'm a lot anxious about the finale. I think I have a pretty good theory now that I know the brain issue, but you guys are probably totally sick of my theories. *grins*

I am annoyed by the OOCness of Brennan's sudden baby statement, but oh well. We'll see what happens with that storyline, for now I think I'm just going to reserve judgement.
Plus the Booth not being like the Booth we all know and love - I totally think he wouldn't have agreed that fast - but he came through in the end realizing that if he couldn't be involved he didn't want to do it.
Her reaction to his repeated hallucinations was awesome - from that moment on the ep was made of win.
YES! I TOTALLY agree! Now if only they'd done that level of emotion earlier on...
Loved seeing the waiting rooms scene with all the squints, and then the BB scene at the end *happy sigh*
I'm anxious about next week - what's your theory? I'd love to hear it, because the promo made me a bit nervous (although I'll have to go watch it again to be sure of what I saw...).

Cam, Sweets, and especially Ange were all so awesome this ep, ITA.
Tell me the theory! Because I'm so confused about how everything that's supposed to happen possibly could.

Do you think he really thought he was seeing a box of donuts? :)

You nailed exactly how I feel about this episode... still Eh on the Brennan wanting a baby... hoping that the storyline has actually been wrapped up (at least for now.) I do think that Booth was just trying to give Brennan what she wanted and suppressing his feelings about it, until he couldn't anymore... Stewie was just that part of his sub-conscious that was screaming at him to freaking man up and tell her the truth…. not that he WON’T do it, just that he has to be involved if he does.
Cam – Angela – Sweets…. BB shippers FTW. I love that they served the purpose of saying everything that the audience is thinking… their frustration is our frustration… and short of going all fanficy and locking them in a closet together – they did what they could to make them freaking fess up to the feelings. GAH! Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE Sweets!!!
David Boreanaz and his face own my soul.
Seriously… what’s your theory.
